i started my car and my brake light came on then shortly after driving, my ABS light came on. it has been a couple of days now and they are still on at the same time (when i start the car for BRAKE light and then shortly after for the ABS light).

Any ideas on how to turn them off or get this problem fixed?

Thanks

Have you checked the fluid levels in the reservoirs??

As Glassjaw mentioned, the fluid in the brake master's reservoir is more than likely low. Either that or the connector has come loose.
Honda incorporates a fluid level sensor in the cap.

If your ABS reservoir is empty, this might be the problem:

Further to what P Adams and I have said, if the fluid levels are low it could also mean that the brake linings are low and may need replacement shortly.
Do your brakes squeel / screech whilst you're driving along the street? (usually this sound is the warning of low brake linings on the front and sometimes the rear if you have 4 wheel disc brakes)

Well what happend was it the lines or the level?.. I am having the sme problem. Brake like on and then after a bit the ABS light.

front brakes are new and rears look good. fluids are all toped off!

Need some help on this!

my front brake line was ripped so it kept spilling d fluid. check ur lines for any leaks or if its squished with sumthing. or maybe clogged lines.

Also check what P Adams mentioned - the float in the main reservoir and the wires leading to it.
